    A lot of issues in these videos can be boiled down to impatience. Filtering without properly looking or speeding while filtering, someone is braking for some reason so we had to pass them, etc. I like to be in a laid back mindset when I ride. I got nowhere to be. I am where I want to be - on motorcycle, enjoying myself riding.

    I used to react badly to drivers doing stupid things and it often ended up in confrontation and 2 angry parties driving their separate ways feeling aggrieved and ready to bore everyone they knew for days afterwards.
    Older and wiser I realise that people make mistakes,me included,yes I might have got hurt but I didn't so I just hang fire with the waved fist,raised middle finger etc and pretty much every time the driver has realised their error and waiting for abuse or an angry reaction then when it hasn't happened apologised in some way.
    One side effect of my decades of riding is that I've learned to stay calm and manage stressful situations without overreacting,. It's done and if no one is hurt move on.
    Most of these incidents have been at least partly the rider's fault ,I'm not preaching,I was young and stupid once myself but I've lost friends in bike accidents and know a young guy currently in prison because his riding tragically caused the death of someone else.

    1:28 The truck wouldn't have been an issue if the rider had been slowing down for the stopped traffic ahead. He still couldn't slow down enough to avoid needing to squeeze in between the stopped vehicle and the curb.
    11:39 Telling the guy to use his mirror is stupid. He just passed a car and was moving into the space in front of it. There was no reason to look in his mirror. He just needed to make sure he was clear of the other car.

      Usually I think Cali has the dumbest laws but I wholeheartedly agree with this one, it’s just better practice to make sure the pedestrian is safe because if you go when they pass you the car next to you can have that reactions to go as well because traffic is moving again and even though it’s “not your problem” I like to just look out for everyone. Especially when it’s something small like that.

    Missing most of the excess speed, Dan at 01:55 mins you missed the issue that even though the bike swerved to the left of the first car, he was up against the curb on the second completely stopped set of vehicles. So speed was way too high, not looking ahead far enough and this was not an interstate so they were speeding at 65 mph. Half the bikes in these vids are in the wrong, excess speed, stunting, going through stop signs, down sidewalks, riding in blind spots, "I'm young, having fun" (almost hit a pedestrian in a 25 zone), on and on. Most of these are what not to do, but Dan is often missing the speed issues. "Goaing a little fast, that's fine", not at all fine. These guys have no margin for the unexpected. Giving motos a bad name to other motorists!
